Pre-Dental

This Saturday, February 9 @ 11:30am

Columbia University College of Dental Medicine SNDA has a mentorship program that is designed to pair pre-dental college students with dental students. This is an opportunity for them to ask any questions they may have about applying to dental school, a career in dentistry and life at Columbia. We will be having a "Meet and Greet" on February 9th from 1130pm-2pm in Riverview Lounge. First we will be giving a tour of the dental school and then we will begin the "Meet and Greet" with the mentors. There will be a panel discussion with dental students from each class and lunch will be served.

RSVP at [log in to unmask] if you are interested.

Meet in the hammer sciences library at 1130am on 168th and Fort Washington and start the tour.
